‘Face Bobrisky, not Falz, Femi Falana’ – Comedian DeeOne to Verydarkman
Comedian DeeOne has urged activist VeryDarkMan to stop dragging Nigerian singer Falz and his father, human rights lawyer Femi Falana, into the ongoing controversy involving Bobrisky and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
This follows an EFCC investigation into claims that some of its officers allegedly accepted N15 million from Bobrisky, whose real name is Idris Okuneye, to drop money laundering charges against him.
The probe, initiated by EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede, comes after a viral audio recording produced by VeryDarkMan, in which Bobrisky made the allegations.
In the recording, Bobrisky claimed that Falz and his father had advised him to seek a pardon to avoid serving his full sentence. DeeOne, in his response, stated that there was nothing wrong with Falz and Femi Falana’s actions in intervening in the case.
He said, “There is no need to drag Falz, drag his father; it makes no sense; because Bobrisky is your enemy does not mean everybody in the whole world should hate him.
When DammyKrane had problems, why did you reach out to Davido to pardon him? In the first place, if Bobrisky had a lawyer like Femi Falana, do you think he would have gone to prison? There is nothing wrong, if Falz had called his daddy to intervene in the matter.“
EFCC has, however, invited Bobrisky and Otse to the commission’s Lagos Directorate to assist in uncovering the truth behind the allegations.
Bobrisky’s claims come after previous legal issues, including a six-month prison sentence for mutilating and spraying Naira notes at social events.
